USS Roosevelt

Several ships of the United States Navy have borne some version of the name "Roosevelt" in honor of members of the Roosevelt family.

* "Kermit Roosevelt" (ARG-16), a "Luzon"-class repair ship that saw service in the Navy during World War II.
* "Franklin D. Roosevelt" (CV-42), was a "Midway"-class aircraft carrier, launched in 1945 and struck in 1977.

Three of the ships have been named USS "Theodore Roosevelt", in honor of President Theodore Roosevelt.
